2012职称英语考前每日一练［卫生类C级］Importance ofChildren’s Oral Health阅读判断（第1～7题，每题1分，共7分）下面的短文后列出了7个句子，请根据短文的内容对每个句子做出判断：如果该句提供的是正确信息，请选择A；如果该句提供的是错误信息，请选择B；如果该句的信息文中没有提及，请选择C.Importance of Children’s Oral HealthFebruary is National Children’s Dental（牙齿的）Health Month， but in children good oral care is critical every day. The first comprehensive study on the national’s oral health， released recently by the office of the U.S. Surgeon General， calls dental and oral diseases a “silent epidemic（流行病），” even i n children. The report states that more than 51 million school hours are lost each year to dental-related illness. In fact， a recent study pointed to dental care as the most common unmet health need among American children.To help counter this， the American Academy of Periodontology（牙周病学）（AAP）is launching an effort to educate children and parents about the prevention of dental diseases in children.“This is important because oral problems can impact self-esteem for children and lead to problems of eating， speaking and attending to learning，” said Michael McGuire president of the AAP.Common dental problems seen in children are cavities（龋洞） and gingivitis（龈炎）which are found in the majority of U.S. children. “when these problems are not caught early and treated， they can develop into more severe problems and cause unnecessary to suffering，” said McGuire，“However， much of the time， oral problems are avoidable problems.”In the Rio Grande Valley in Texas， a group of more than 120 dentists volunteer deliver dental care to thousands of low-income children each year with its Mobile Delnit that travels from school to school.“According to the Surgeon General’s report， about 37 percent of children have not had a dental visit before starting school，” said McGuire，“When children don’t see dental professionals they miss the opportunity to have problems caught early before they develop into larger expensive problems to treat， and parents miss the opportunity to learn how to promote good oral habits in their children.”1 Only in February should attention be paid to children’s oral health.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned2 Dental and oral diseases are common in both adults and children.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned3 Boys miss more school hours each year due to dental-related illness.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned4 Oral problems in children can develop into more severe problems.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned5 Oral problems can not be avoided in any way.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned6 The low-income children are very grateful to the dentists.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned7 Some children have never seen a dentist before starting school.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned。

请根据短文内容，为每题确定1个最佳选项。

第一篇Genetic EngineeringGenetic engineering began when the DNA molecule(分子), the most basic unit of life, was first described in 1953 by James Watson and Francis Crick. An understanding of DNA led to the altering of normal cell reproduction. Experiments with altering human cells began in 1970. In one of the first experiments, patients were injected with a virus that would produce alife-saving enzyme, but their bodies would not accept it. In 1980 patients with a rare but fatal blood disease were injected with a purified gene that was cloned through DNA technology. Another failure.Genetic engineering got a legal boost(激励) in 1980. The U.S. Supreme Court said that a patent could be granted on a genetically engineered "oil-eating" bacterium(细菌). This bacterium would help clean up oil spills. The ruling encouraged companies to invent new life forms, and three important medical products were quickly developed.l Human interferon(干扰素)-- a possible solution to some cancers and viral disease. A newly engineered bacterium produced human interferon as a by-product. This new product reduced the cost of interferon.l Human growth hormone-- for children whose bodies do not grow to normal height. An expensive growth hormone(荷尔蒙) was previously produced from human cadavers, but by changing the genetic make-up of the single-cell bacterium E. coli, and affordable growth hormone could be produced.l Human insulin(胰岛素)-- for the treatment of diabetes. People with diabetes used to rely on a beef- or pork-based product until 1982. Now insulin can be manufactured by genetically altered bacteria.Advances in genetic engineering have continued, though they constantly must be weighted against the safety of procedures. There is clearly much more to discover.31. This passage is mainly aboutA. the effects of altering cells.B. the human growth hormone.C. insulin resistance.D. U.S. Supreme Court rulings.【答案】：A32. Genetic enginerring may be defined asA. the altering of normal cell reproductionB. a branch of applied chemistry.C. a procedure that holds little promise.D. a study on life-saving enzymes.【答案】：A33. According to the passage, human interferonA. is a hormone that causes disease.B. could be used to treat cancer.C. is a viral diseaseD. has been cured【答案】：B34. In this passage, the three genetically engineered medical products are presentedA. as a process.B. in a simple list.C. from earliest to latest.D.as a story.【答案】：B35. In the last paragraph, the word "weighed" has the cloest meaning withA. had great influenceB. became a burden.C. considered carefully.D. measured accurately.【答案】：C第二篇Puerto Rican Cuisine(菜肴)Puerto Rico, a Caribbean (加勒比海区) island rich in history and remarkable natural beauty, has a cuisine all its own. Immigration(移民) to the island has helped to shape its cuisine, with people from all over the world making various contributions to it. However, before the arrival of these immigrants, the Taino people lived on the island of Puerto Rico. Taino cuisine included such foods as rodents (啮齿动物), fresh shellfish and fish fried in corn oil.Many aspects of Taino cuisine continue today in Puerto Rican cooking, but it has been heavily influenced by the Spanish, who invaded Puerto Rico in 1508, and Africans, who were initially brought to Puerto Rico to work as slaves. Taino cooking styles were mixed with ideas brought by the Spanish and Africans to create new dishes. The Spanish extended food choices by bringing cattle, pigs, goats, and sheep to the island. Africans also added to the island's food culture by introducing powerful, contrasting tastes in dishes. In fact, much of the food Puerto Rico is now famous for - coffee, coconuts, and oranges - was actually imported by foreigners to the island.A common assumption many people make about Puerto Rican food is that it is very spicy(辛辣的). lt's true that chili peppers are popular; aij caballero in particular is a very hot chili pepper that Puerto Ricans enjoy. However, milder(微辣的) tastes are popular too, such as sofrito. As the base of many Puerto Rican dishes, sofrito is a sauce made from chopped onions, green bell peppers, sweet chili peppers, and a handful of other spices. It is fried in oil and then added to other dishes.36、who lived in Puerto Rico firstA.the AfricansB.the SpanishC.the AmericansD.the Taino people【答案】：D37、In the first paragraph the word “it” refers toA.immigrationB.Caribbean historyC.the island’s natural beautyD.Puerto Rican cuisine【答案】：D38、what is the main idea of the second paragraph?A.Taino dishes are important in Puerto Rican cookingB.Food imported by foreigners isn’t really Puerto RicanC.Puerto Rican cooking has many outside influencesD.African foods have probably had the most influence 【答案】：C39、How is sofrito used?A.It is eaten before mealsB.It is added to other dishesC.It is used where foods are too spicyD.It is eaten as a main dish【答案】：B40、 which of the following is NOT true?A.softito is a type of extremely spicy foodB.Many people think Puerto Rican food is spicyC.Puerto Rican cuisine uses a lot of chili peppersD.Aij caballero is a type of chile pepper【答案】：A第三篇Eat healthy"Clean your plate!" and "Be a member of the clean-pla te club1!’’ Just about every kid in the US has heard this from a parent or grandparent. Often, it’s accompanied by an appeal：“Just think about those starving orphans in Africa!2" Sure, we should be grateful for every bite of food. Unfortunately, many people in the US take too many bites3. Instead of staying "clean the plate", perhaps we should save some food for tomorrow.According to news reports, US restaurants are partly to blame for the growing bellies. A waiter puts a plate of food in front of each customer, with two to four times the amount recommended by the government, according to a USA Today story.4 Americans traditionally associate quantity with value and most restaurants try to give them that. They prefer to have customers complain about too much food rather than too little.Barbara Rolls, a nutrition professor at Pennsylvania State University; told USA Today that restaurant portion sizes began (o grow in the 1970s, the same time that the American waistline began to expand.Health experts have tried to get many restaurants to serve smaller portions. Now, apparently, some customers are calling for this too. The restaurant industry trade magazine QSR reported last month that 57 percent of more than 4,000 people surveyed believe restaurants serve portions that are too large; 23 percent had no opinion; 20 percent disagreed. But a closer look at the survey indicates that many Americans who can’t afford fine dining still prefer large portions. Seventy percent of those earning at least $150,000 per year prefer smaller portions; but only 45 percent of those earning less than $25,000 want smaller.It’s not that working class Americans don’t want to eat healthy. It’s just that, "after long hours at low-paying jobs, getting less on their platehardly seems like a good deal.5 They live frompaycheck to paycheck, happy to save a little money for next year’s Christmas presents.41、Parents in the United States tend to ask their childrenA.not to waste food at mealsB.to save food for tomorrowC.to wash the dishes cleanD.not to eat too much at meals【答案】：A42、American restaurants serve large portions because AmericansA.have big belliesB.value quantityC.want enough nutritionD.are mostly rich【答案】：B43、what happened in America in the 1970S?A.The restaurants began to serve smaller portionsB.Health experts advised people to eat lessC.May American tried to get slimD.the America waistline started to expand【答案】：D44、what does the survey indicate?A.20 percent Americans want smaller portionsB.57 percent Americans earn $150.000 per yearC.Low-income American prefer large portionsD.23 percent Americans earn less than $25.000per year【答案】：C45、which of the following is NOT true of walking class Americans?A.they live from paycheck to paycheckB.they don’t have the habit of saving moneyC.they work long hoursD.the want to be healthy eaters【答案】：B服务：博大考神作为专业的职称英语培训中心，结合多年的培训经验，提供职称英语考试全套信息服务和考试资料。

职称英语考试卫生类(C级)真题及答案5第三篇U.S. Life Expectancy Hits New HighLife expectancy rates in the United States are at an all—time high，with people born in 2005 projected to live for nearly 78 years，a new federal study finds.The finding reflects a continuing trend of increasing life expectancy that began in1955.when the average American lived to be 59.6 years old.By 1995，life expectancy was 75.8 years，and by 2005，it had risen to 77.9 years，according to the report released Wednesday.“This is good news，”s aid report co—author Donna Hoyert，a health scientist at the National Center for Health Statistics.“It’s even better news that it is a continuation of trends，so it is a long period of continuing improvement.”Despite the upward trend，the United States still has a lower life expectancy than some 40 other countries，according to the U.S. Census(人口普查)Bureau.the country with the longest life expectancy is Andorra at 83.5 years，followed by Japan，Macau，San Marino and Singapore.Much of the increase owes to declining death rates from the three leading causes of death in the country—heart disease.6an’ceF arid stroke.In addition，in 2005，the U.S.death rate dropped to an all—time low of less than 800 deaths per 1 00,000.Dr.David Katz，director of the Prevention Research Center at Yale University School of Medicine，said，“News that life expectancy is increasing is，of course，good. But the evidence we have suggests that there is more chronic disease than ever in the U.S.”Adding years to life is a good thing，Katz said.“But adding vital life to years is atleast equally important. If we care about living well，and not just longer，we still have our work cut out for U.S.” he said.41.

So they started making their own．In l920 Adolph made the firstpair of athletic shoes with spikes(钉)，produced on the Dasslers’ kitchen table．On lst July l924 they formed a shoe company，Dassler Brothers Ltd and they worked together for many years．The company became successful and it provided the shoes for Germany’s athletes at the l928 and l932 Olympic Games．But in l948 the brothers argued．No one knows exactly what happened，but family members have suggested that the argument was about money or women．The result was that Adolph left the company．His nickname was Adi．and using this and the first three letters of the family name, Dassler, he founded Adidas．Rudolph relocated across the River Aurach and founded his own company too．At first he wanted to call it Ruda, but eventually he called it Puma，after the wild cat．The famous Puma logo of the jumping cat has hardly changed since．After the big split of l948 Adolph and Rudolph never spoke to each other again and their companies have now been in competition for over sixty years．Both companies were for many years the market leaders, though Adidas has always been more successful than Puma．A hip hop group, Run DMC，has even written a song called “My Adidas” and in 2005 Adidas bought Reebok, another big sports shoe company．The terrible family argument should really be forgotten，but ever since it happened，over sixty years ago．the town has been split into two．Even now，some Adidas employees and Puma employees don’t talk to each other．16 Adidas and Puma started to make sports shoes at the end of the l9th century．A RightB WrongC Not mentioned17 The brothers’ father was a ball maker．A RightB WrongC Not mentioned18 The brothers first made sports shoes at home．A RightB WrongC Not mentioned19 The brothers provided sports shoes for the l924 Olympic Games．A RightB WrongC Not mentioned20 The brothers decided to start up their separate companies after the argument．A RightB WrongC Not mentioned21 Nike sells more shoes than Adidas．A RightB WrongC Not mentioned22 People in the town have now forgotten the argument．A RightB WrongC Not mentioned第3部分：概括大意与完成句子(第23-30题，每题l分，共8分)下面的短文后有2项测试任务：(1)第23—26题要求从所给的6个选项中为第1-4段每段选择1个最佳标题；(2)第27～30题要求从所给的6个选项中为每个句子确定1个最佳选项.Who Built Giza’s Pyramids(金字塔)?1 For centuries，the pyramids of Giza have been timeless symbols of Egyptian culture．But who actually built them? For years，we did not know for sure．But archeologists(考古学家) recently discovered an ancient village near the pyramids．Close by．there was also a cemetery(墓地)where pyramid builders were buried．From studying these places，archeologists can now confirm that the pyramids were not built by slaves or foreigners．Ordinary Egyptians built them．2 It took about eighty years to build the pyramids．According to archeologists．about 20,000-30,000 people were involved in completing the task．The workers had different roles．Some dug up the rock．some moved it，and some shaped it into blocks．People also worked on different teams. each with its ownname．On a wall in Khufu’s Great Pyramid，for example，a group of workers wrote “Fnends of Khufu．”Teams often competed to do a job faster．3 Life for these workers was hard．“We can see that in their skeletons(骨架).”says Azza Mohamed Sarry El-Din．a scientist studying bodies found in the cemetery．The bones show signs of arthritis(关节炎)，which developed from carrying heavy things for a long time．Archeologists have also found many female skeletons in the village and cemetery．The damage to their bones is similar to the men’s．Their lives may have been even tougher：male workers lived to age 40—45．but women to only 30—35．However, workers usually had enough food．and they also had medical care if they got sick or hurt．4 The work was challenging, but laborers were proud of their work．“It's because they were not just building the tomb of their king.”says Egyptian archeologist Zahi Hawass．“They were building Egypt．It was a national project．and everyone was a participant．”23 Paragraph l24 Paragraph 225 Paragraph 326 Paragraph 4A Pyramid builders’ tough livesB An important national projectC Female pyramid builders：the challengesD Female pyramid builders’ jobE Builders of the pyramidsF Egyptian salves27 The pyramids of Giza were built .28 To build the pyramids，the workers had different roles and worked .29 Both men and women workers suffered from arthritis which developed .30 The pyramid builders were proud .A by foreignersB of their workC by ordinary EgyptiansD on different teamsE of their kingF from taking heavy things第4部分：阅读理解(第31-45题，每题3分，共45分)．下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题.请根据短文内容，为每题确定l个最佳选项.第一篇The Changing Middle ClassThe United States perceives itself to be a middle-class nation．However，middle class is not a real designation，nor does it carry privileges(特权)．It is more of a perception，which probably was as true as it ever could be right after World War Ⅱ．The economy was growing，more and more people owned their own homes．workers had solid contracts with the companies that employed them, and nearlyeveryone who wanted a higher education could have one．Successful people enjoyed upward social mobility．They may have started out poor, but they could become rich．Successful people also found that they had greater geographic mobility．In other words．they found themselves moving to and living in a variety of places．The middle class collectively holds several values and principles．One strong value is the need to earn enough money to feel that one can determine one’s own economic fate．In addition，middle-class morality(道德观)embraces principles of individual responsibility，importance of family, obligations to others, and believing in something outside oneself．But in the l990s those in the middle class found that there was a price for success．AU.S. News & World Report survey in l994 indicated that 75 percent of Americans believed that middle-class families could no longer make ends meet．Both spouses(配偶)now worked，as didsome of the children，long commutes(通勤)became routine，the need for child care put strains on the family．and public schools were not as good as they once were．Members of the middle class were no longer financing their lifestyles through earnings but were using credit to stay afloat(透支)．The understanding of just what middle class meant was changing．31 This passage gives information about .A an individualB a social and economic groupC a political organizationD a government department32 In the years after World War Ⅱ, the middle class were .A overburdened and in debtB hard working and doubtfulC happy and full of hopeD young and upset33 One important middle-class value isthat .A people should always have funB children should believe in themselvesC debt is nothing to worry aboutD they should earn enough to finance their lifestyles34 In the second paragraph, the word “collectively” means .A commonlyB hesitatinglyC unknowinglyD weakly35 The l994 survey showed most Americans thought the middle class .A took pleasure in raising childrenB had a regular journey to workC could not earn enough money to maintain their lifestylesD could easily maintain their lifestyles第二篇Puerto Rican Cuisine(菜肴)Puerto Rico, a Caribbean (加勒比海区) island rich in history and remarkable natural beauty, has a cuisine all its own. Immigration(移民) to the island has helped to shape its cuisine, with people from all over the world making various contributions to it. However, before the arrival of these immigrants, the Taino people lived on the island of Puerto Rico. Taino cuisine included such foods as rodents (啮齿动物), fresh shellfish and fish fried in corn oil.Many aspects of Taino cuisine continue today in Puerto Rican cooking, but it has been heavily influenced by the Spanish, who invaded Puerto Rico in 1508, and Africans, who were initially brought to Puerto Rico to work as slaves. Taino cooking styles were mixed with ideas brought by the Spanish and Africans to create new dishes. The Spanish extended food choices by bringing cattle, pigs, goats, and sheepto the island. Africans also added to the island's food culture by introducing powerful, contrasting tastes in dishes. In fact, much of the food Puerto Rico is now famous for - coffee, coconuts, and oranges - was actually imported by foreigners to the island.A common assumption many people make about Puerto Rican food is that it is veryspicy(辛辣的). It's true that chili peppers are popular; aij caballero in particular is a very hot chili pepper that Puerto Ricans enjoy. However, milder(微辣的) tastes are popular too, such as sofrito. As the base of many Puerto Rican dishes, sofrito is a sauce made from chopped onions, green bell peppers, sweet chili peppers, and a handful of other spices. It is fried in oil and then added to other dishes.36、who lived in Puerto Rico firstA. the Taino peopleB. the AfricansC. the SpanishD. the Americans37、In the first paragraph the word “it” refers toA. immigrationB.

Many people thought this was a good plan．They began to give their money to Ponzi．How could Ponzi make so much money for people? This is what he did with the money people gave him：He used some of that money to pay other people who gave him money．However, he also kept a lot of the money for himself．Soon he had $250 million．This was a kind of theft, and it was against the law．The people who gave him their money didn’t think anything was wrong．Ponzi paid them every month．just like a bank．Ponzi continued this way of working for two years．Then one day, he didn’t have enough money to pay all the people．They discovered his crime．and he went to prison for fraud．Ninety years later, people began to hear about a businessman in New York named Bernard Mad off．People said he gave good advice about money．They said when they gave him their money．he paid them a lot more thanthe bank．Mad off helped hospitals, schools，and individuals earn money．Over a period of 40 years．people gave him $170 billion．However, no one investigated what he did with the money．The people who gave Madoff their money also didn’t think anything was wrong because he paid them every month．One day, Madoff didn’t have enough money to pay all the people he needed to pay．That’s when people discovered how Madoff worked：He was taking money from some people to pay other people，just the way Chades Ponzi did．However，this time，instead of losing millions of dollars．people lost billions．Madoff was accused of fraud, and United States government officials arrested him．He didn’t have to go on trial because he said he was guilty．In 2009,a judge sentenced him to 150 years in prison．Bernard Madoff’s crime was even bigger than Ponzi’s．It was the biggest fraud in history．The lesson of this story isclear：When something seems too good to be true，it probably is!41 For every $100,Ponzi promised to pay people .A $5 a yearB $20 a yearC $40 a yearD $100 a year42 What did Ponzi do with the money people gave him?A He spent it all on things for himself．B He deposited it all in a bank．C He kept it all to save for a good plan．D He used some of it to pay other people．43 What was Ponzi’s crime?A He kept a lot of other people’s money for himself．B He robbed the banks of millions of dollars．C He gave people more than the bank did．D He did not pay people their interests．44 How long did Madoff’s tricks last?A Four year．B Nine years．C Forty years．D Ninety years．45 Why didn’t Madoff have to go on trial?A The officials couldn’t find any evidence against him．B He admitted he was guilty．C He had friends in the govemment who helped him．D He returned all the illegal money．第5部分：补全短文(第46-50题，每题2分，共l0分)下面的短文有5处空白，短文后有6个句子，其中5个取自短文，请根据短文内容将其分别放回原有位置，以恢复文章原貌.Forests for CitiesYou are standing in a beautiful forest in Japan．The air is clean and smells like plants and flowers．There are l75 different kinds of trees，and 60 kinds of birds live here．(46)You are downtown in the city of Nara，Japan，in Kasugayama Forest，the oldest urban forest in the world．It was started more than a thousand years ago，and today it's very popular with tourists and artists．Cities around the world are working to protect their urban forests．Some urban forests are parks，and some are just streets with a lot of trees．But all urban forests have many good effects on the environment．(47)They also stop the noise from heavy traffic．They even make the weather better because they make the air 3-5 degrees cooler，and they stop strong winds．Urban forests also have many good effects on people．They make the city more beautiful．In a crowded area，they give people a place to relax and spend time in nature．(48)In some countries，people are starting new urban forests．In England，there are now 1.3 million trees in an urban forest called Thames Chase，east of London．It was started in 1990，and it has grown very fast.

These stories fall into three general categories: autobiography, memoir, and biography.An autobiography is the story of a person's life written by himself or herself. Often it begins with the person's earliest recollections and ends in the present. Autobiography writers may not be entirely objective in the way they present themselves. However, they offer the reader a good look at the way they are and what makes them that way. People as diverse as Benjarmin Franklin and Helen Keller have written autobiographies. 1Other writers, such as James Joyce，have written thinly fictionalized accounts of their lives. These are not autobiographies，but they are very close to it.Memoirs, strictly speaking, are autobiographical accounts that focus as much on the events of the times as on the life of the author. 2Memoir writers typically use these events as backdrops for their lives. They describe them in detail and discuss their importance. Recently，though，the term memoir seems to be becoming interchangeab1e with autobiography. A memoir nowadays may or may not deal with the outside world.Biographies are factual accounts of someone else's life. In many senses，these may be the hardest of the three types to write. Autobiography writers know the events they write about because they lived them. But biography writers have to gather information from as many different sources as possible. Then they have to decide which facts to include. Their goal is to present a balanced picture of a person，not one that is overly positive or too critical. A fair well-presented biography may take years to research and write.词汇：Backdrop n. 背景interchangeable adj. 可转换的注释：1. People as diverse as Benjamin Franklin and Helen Keller have written autobiographies. 就像本杰明富兰克林和海伦凯勒一样，各种各样的人们已经写了自传。

写在最前面的关于30分题+15分1. +表示A级文章；*表示B即文章；其他为C级文章，考哪一级就看哪一级的内容，别的级别的题目完全不用看。

2. 每个级别新增阅读理解2篇完型填空2篇（今年以前完形填空只新增一篇），考试的时候，这两篇阅读理解必考一篇，文章完全一样，但是问题及答案不一定完全一样，所以仅仅记住答案是不可靠的，一定要结合后面的翻译把这篇文章看懂。

那么这里5道题目15分必定能拿到。

然后完型填空，先说今年以前，只新增一篇完型填空，这篇完型填空必考，只是留空的位置不会完全一样，大约有40%左右的留空位置是一样，所以光背答案是没得用的，一定要把文章看熟。

当然今年由于每个级别新增了2篇完型填空，那么考试的时候肯定也是2选1考一篇。

这里15道题15分也很容易能拿到。

3. 词汇有15道题，替换同义词，找本字典翻翻，这15分也不难，至少12分能拿到吧。

其他的题能拿多少分就看各位的英语底子了。

做最坏的打算，剩下的题目还有55分，按瞎蒙25%的概率能拿到13.75分，加上前面的45分大约也有58分左右，所以要完全靠瞎蒙的朋友考试前多扶扶老奶奶过马路，多积累点人品吧。

4. 以上只是投机取巧的方法，各位有时间的话还是花点时间复习下，但是考前一定要把新增的题目掌握好，就算英语底子好的朋友也起码可以节约不少考试时间。

5. 本人职称英语A\B\C级都是这样考过的，每年的规律都是一样的。

从客观角度说，每年的职称英语考试书都不便宜，新增的内容也不多，如果新增的东西里面没有价值，那么那本书还有谁买？那本书可是考试中心出的，阅读理解*第三＋八篇 "Life Form Found" on Saturn's Titan*第四十篇 Teaching Math, Teaching Anxiety完形填空*第十一篇 Climate Change Poses Major Risks for Unprepared Cities*第十二篇 Free Statins With Fast Food Could Neutralize Heart Risk*第三＋八篇 "Life Form Found" on Saturn's TitanScientists say they have discovered hints of alien life1 on the Saturn's moon2. The discovery of a sort of life was announced after researchers at the US space agency,NASA3,analyzed data from spacecraft Cassini4,which pointed to,the existence of methane-based form of life on Saturn's biggest moon.Scientists have reportedly discovered clues showing primitive alien beings are"breathing" inTitan's dense atmosphere filled with hydrogen.They argue that hydrogen gets absorbed before hitting Titan's planet-like surface covered with methane lakes and rivers. This,they say,points to the existence of some"bugs"5 consuming the hydrogen at the surface of the moon less than half the size of the Earth."We suggested hydrogen consumption because it's the obvious gas for life to consume on Titan,similar to the way we consume oxygen on Earth,"says NASA scientist Chris McKay."If these signs do turn out to be a sign of life,it would be doubly exciting because it would represent a second form of life independent from water-based life on Earth."To date,scientists have not yet detected this form of life anywhere,though there are liquid-water-based microorganisms on Earth that grow well on methane or produce it as a waste product. On Titan, where temperatures are around 90 Kelvin6(minus 290 degrees Farenheit),a methanebased organism would have to use a substance that is liquid as its medium for living processes, but not water itself. Water is frozen solid on Titan's surface and much too cold to support life as we know it.Scientists had expected the Sun's interactions with chemicals in the atmosphere to produce a coating of acetylene on Titan's surface. But Cassini detected no acetylene on the surface.The absence of detectable acetylene on the Titan's surface can very well have a non-biological explanation,said Mark Allen,a principal investigator7 of the NASA Titan team."Scientific conservatism suggests that a biological explanation should be the last choice after all non-biological explanations are addressed,"Allen said. "We have a lot of work to do to rule out8 possible non-biological explanations. It is more likely that a chemical process,without biology,can explain these results."词汇：Saturn /'sætən/ n．土星 methane/'mi:θein/ n．甲烷，沼气Titan/'taitən/ n．土卫六 acetylene/ə'setili:n/ n．乙炔alien/'eiljən/ n．外星人；adj．外星球的；相异的conservatism/kən'sʒ:vətizəm/ n．保守主义,守旧注释：1.hints of alien life：外星生命迹象。
